A nice thought, but we already know their nukes are operational and the rockets they have work
fine. Most likely scenario is that they will finally piss the wrong people off (either America
or, surprisingly, China, given how retarded their foreign policies regarding them have been
recently) and a land invasion will ensue. Neither America or China would waste nukes on them
(their military infrastructure largely consists of massive underground bunkers too deep for even
earth penetrating weapons) and a land invasion would ensue. Massive SK casualties would occur,
but the NK forces would never be able to hold the south in open warfare and would be forced into
retreat into aforementioned underground bunkers. There they would have the capability of fending
off attacks for years and launching guerilla attacks on any invading force.

In short, think less a massive nuclear ass-reaming of NK and more a long, slow, pointless
military engagement akin to Vietnam or the second gulf. Whoever invaded would fight with
sincerity the first few years but as the conflict drags on they'll lose public support and
funding and just give up. They'll set some bullshit target (like taking a specific province/
killing a specific figurehead) and when that's achieved they'll withdraw. Hundreds of thousands
(possibly millions as NK would likely 'salt' the earth by burning farmland and villages as they
retreated) will die, we (or China) will waste billions of dollars and in a decade we'll find some
other nation far from home to die/ kill/ test weapons in. Korea, Vietnam, Panama, Gulf,
Afghanistan. Rinse and fucking repeat for all eternity.

With a country that speaks the same language as them, which is extremely rich compared to them
and won't ask them to die fighting a superior power with air strikes and artillery bombardments
it's not that hard to imagine the NK forces bleeding off to a skeleton crew. Sure there will
still be a fair ammount zealots who hold out and are willing to fight and die for the myth of
their great leader, but I don't think it will be the exact same sort of protracted war of
attrition as Nam or Afganistan.
In any case though, nukes aren't really on the table unless NK does something massively retarded,
the risk of fallout on friendlies like SK is pretty high and nukes are hard to justify. Still I
would expect a large scale bombing/shelling of the country just to take out strategic
installations like artillery or AA. Once NK is defanged and no longer has many ways of striking
out at allies like SK, it wouldn't take that much to just turn it into a siege and starve the
rest out.

Top kek at these potato faggots thinking Kim is actually going to attack anything. North Korea is
a small fish and has to appear dangerous to ensure their survival. Plus, fat Kim doesn't want to
look weak in front of his people. Norks and the USA will exchange a few empty threats and that
will be it.

The Americans have assassinated leaders of larger countries and installed puppet dictators for
far less.

Nuclear capability ties an aggressor country's hands. And North Korea's relationship with China
makes the first move an even worse idea. And again, the Norks aren't actually going to nuke
something and start a war they won't survive. People that take this routine saber rattling at
face value have an infantile perspective and should lurk more and keep their mouths shut in the
meantime.

AND HONESTLY the only American territory that they could reliably hit would be guam and if guam
was erased off the map who would even know the difference???

Guam is a massively strategic island for the US military. It gives us a base of operations out of
SE Asia, which helps keep China from just building islands all over the place and expanding it's
territory into other countries.

good thing guam is just one of the many mariana islands. if they want to wipe out the territory
theyd use most of their nuclear arsenal for the time being

>North Korea's relationship with china
What relationship? Besides both being offshoots of the communist uprisings in asia they have
little in common, all attempts at "party solidarity" aside. If anything china want's them to stop
being a bunch of retards and come into the fold. They'd definitely see any military action in the
region as against their interest and probably as a flareup of the old anti-comunist aggression,
but at this point they probably wouldn't do much. It would come down to basic economics, I doubt
china would side with a small country which might be an ally one day, versus the single largest
trading partner they have.
Don't get me wrong, it would fuck up the international relationship between the US and china for
a while, but it's not like china would get dragged into a war over a country that is only a
fraction of their total size and with no particular strategic advantage.
>the Norks aren't actually going to nuke something and start a war they won't survive.
I never said they were likely to, but it's not hard to imagine that someone like Un, who's pretty
megalomaniac and regularly purges his inner circle executing those who have been his "friends"
for years, might decide to drag the country down with him if he senses a real threat, and it's
not like the US hasn't thought of trying something.
When it's just one guy who gets the first and last say on use of force there's a lot of room for
error.

There's little doubt that the people in the young Kim's inner circle are zealots who truly
believe in the cause, or else are very good at pretending to be. Un's been very vigilant of
possible coup attempts and has already had several higher ups in the military and in his inner
circle denounced and executed on the mere suspicion of disloyalty. Anyone manning the nukes is
almost certainly hand picked to have unerring loyalty to the Kim family and their pseudo-mythical
history as saviors of the land. I wouldn't count on disobedience, cowardice, or treachery saving
the day if he ever decided to launch a nuke.
